We have a choice of tan or white for sails, (racing! or heavy weather). Spray hood, running rigging, spinnaker, electronics, etc too numerous to remember. Hope to see you soon.
I remember the tan.
I could see red and green on a ship getting bigger brighter and apparently higher. Point big torch at sails I thought. Tan sails. Hmmm.
5 flashes across the ships wheelhouse window. Aim at tan sail wishing so much it was white.
Repeat.
it turned after 4 or 5 attempts.
You slept through it.
Ill never forget those tan sails
